Menus appear when you rollover a background image

I'm a beginner flash programmer- and this is what I need to do.

I'm importing an image into flash that's going to act as a background.
When I rollover certain positions on the image I'd like a clickable menu to appear and the different
sections on the menu go to web pages when they are clicked on.

It would be nice if a blinking image were plotted (like a triangle) on the image so that people would know that they could click to see a menu appear - this would be nice but not necessarily a must.

If you could even point me to a straight forward tutorial that would be greatly appreciated.

I would give 1000 points on this question but they only allow me to give 500.

What you could use is make transparent buttons over your background image or parts of it. If you need to know exactly how just ask, but I dont have time to explain at the moment...

I've got one question demon1s,

The instructions you gave are great, but if I make the image that appears when you roll over an actual menu , how do I make the menu (which is really an image) go to more than 1 URL based on what part of the menu you rollover?
just make an invisible button for each part, or split each menu item into a seperate image and use the image its self as a button.
